Yawn ... supper last night at 1:30 in the morning, body-clock (Israel) time. Several courses: menu, order, beverage, nuts, salad, main course, dessert. And no one could help me get my carry-on down and the CPAP unpacked until everyone else was fed, of course. Then the power in my business-class seat wasn't working, and they had to change my seat. And the power in the new seat didn't work either. So I burrowed under my blanket and begged the Lord, "Please help me cope, and not be so sleep-deprived I'm unbearable!" So the Lord fixed the electricity; it worked till I got up about 5:30 (body clock), at which time it stopped again. ;-D
Breakfast ... and we arrived in Philadelphia about 11:30 Israel time, but about 5 a.m. local time. Through passport control ... through customs ("What did you bring back from Israel?" "Books, olive wood ornaments, scarves—typical old-lady-tourist stuff!" And the customs guy laughed, and sent me on my way.
They do feed you well in business class, and the seats fold out into an almost-real bed, which is a great blessing! In any event, I'm HOME! Sallie's on the back of the sofa, SO glad her mama's home again! Dolphin's purring by my side. I think I'm going to take a nap ... yawn ...
But here's Tefy, my bunny, admiring my breakfast on the plane:
